A thoughtful equestrian friend muses:
"My theory is that horses are especially good for girls, to teach them not to be afraid of someone larger or stronger, and to work in partnership with the strength through collaboration and training. Once they learn that, they have some training in not being afraid or pushed around by men, who are generally larger and stronger than they are."
